Whole this movie has some issues with quality, I still think it has heart and is fun to watch. I'm not going to critique everything. I just saw it had a bad rating and wanted to say it's worth watching. There's some wtf moments and some pretty funny parts. I thought the actor who played the main guy was good. Watch the first five minutes on Tubi and tell me you don't at least chuckle after he is yelling at the help and then jumps up from the table. He plays a very hateable character, and does it well. I liked the way the movie is set up as a story a drunk dad is telling his kids, too. While it didn't add a lot, it didn't take away and it added some levity. Biggest mistake these losers made was making it about money... that's how you have a bad trip.

You have to love the description that was in the PR email for this movie: "Brothers Johnny and Luke hold this year's haunted hot girl challenge in an abandoned prison facility deep in the forest on acid. It's a good trip until the devil shows up." Devil's Acid was written and directed by first-time talent Garrett Kruithof. It's all about the rich and abusive Johnny throwing a party in an abandoned building complete with LSD and a gun. Of course, the devil shows up - or the acid kicks in - but at the same time, it could all be a story being told by a man named Dale who is hanging out with two young kids while he gets smashed.

Horrible acting, even worse writing. Plot was absent before the opening credits. Sadly, the opening "Grindhouse" or "planet terror" rip off was the best thing about this movie! Everything else needed to be aborted from the sales pitch to the B-Movie production company. Do NOT waste your time with this half-pint of a movie. SMDH, I will never get the wasted time back. I could have been popping zits or swabbing the inside of my junk for STD's....

Trying to get his son asleep, a man begins telling a story about a guy who gathers several friends and other girls together at an abandoned prison to try out a wild party game of his, and when a batch of devil's acid is brought into the mix their psychedelic trip causes more problems than expected. This was a wholly flawed effort. What really works here is the atmosphere of the situation as the abandoned building features some great images. The prison being out in the middle of nowhere and obviously not being used for a while creates an appropriate air of creepiness that mixes together with the usual motifs of the abandoned building with endless corridors, whispering voices and flickering lighting. That this is then furthered by the heavy drug use which brings plenty of fantastical visuals in the various encounters throughout the prison which goes along with the frenzied action each of them undergoes due to the situation. However, these here are all that works for the film. There are quite a few flaws here. Among the main issues here is the fact that the disjointed plot never really allows for any kind of momentum to be built-up. Just as the film is attempting to build to something potentially creepy or chilling, the film cuts away to show the kids needing something to eat or drink in order to finish the story or interject with their own thoughts and ideas as to how it should be instead before the father takes control again. This is incredibly frustrating and leads to a choppy feel with the pacing that never allows the film to gather any kind of energy as it's always interrupted cutting back to them. That also comes into play with the next factor as the kids interrupting to tell their stories makes it difficult to tell what really happened. There's no clue what's the final version of events in the real story or even what was supposed to be horror about these scenes as the film's nature of having everyone on acid tends to really short change the atmosphere and dread. Nothing that happens in any of these stories comes across as scary or thrilling regardless of who's telling it, and to blame the whole thing on a drug-influenced series of hallucinations without any of it really happening is a cheat and a total disservice to the atmosphere it had built up. The last real problem here is the absolutely bland and unfunny characters that populate this one. As we spend the entire time with a group of brain-dead, clueless, misogynistic and racist characters that are intended to be funny based on a very light tone and the continuous usage of jokes at their expense, we grow to despise them rather than side with them. As no one tends to utilize any common sense in spotting what's wrong because they're too busy playing up to the jokes that are being offered about the situation, this grows tiresome and bland really fast, making for the biggest issues that hold this one down the most. Rated Unrated/R: Graphic Language, heavy drug use and Violence.

First of all, I love indie horror films. I don't remember how I stumbled upon this film but, I'm glad I did. Very good cast, very good look and feel, GREAT dialogue. The story isn't the most original story in the world but, there's a lot of clever one liners in it. The ending is kinda weak but, during the credits, there are more shots that keep it interesting. I had a lot of fun watching this. I won't spoil a thing but, I definitely recommend it. It's not the best indie horror film in the last 5 years but, there's a hell of a lot worse. 6/10

The story is creative and engaging, especially the set up of a late night storytelling session. The tropes are well founded horror elements that can at times seem overdone and disingenuous. In "Devil's Acid" there are those moments here as well, but for the most part the point of view and heavy humor keeps things balanced out. People hallucinating to the level of psychosis, I mean how could you not be curious. The acting is iffy, not so much in ability or lack of direction. Mostly the characters seem a little too cliche and overdrawn. A couple of cast members seem to have control of their parts. Still it all is relative, and somewhat debatable, given the gonzo/ grindhouse style both visually and in writing. There is enough here to also enjoy. Some of the acting and some dialog is just to funny and enjoyable to really dismiss "Devil's Acid" completely. The horror is mostly disappointing. Everything that happens is more gimmicky and restrictive. Budget issues probably explain that, but I really wanted more messier, celebratory violence and gore. Still, "Devil's Acid" has some cool atmospheric moments, recognize situational stuff that compliments the drug induced mayhem. Plus the devil (maybe). Overall "Devil's Acid" is gonna have a limited fanbase. Mostly ultra low-budget b-movie fans who like dark humor with a touch of horror will get it. The movie does ride wildly close to "so bad it's good" status. It does have some choice moments. Still fans looking for more horror in their humor may be disappointed.

Not made for stone cold sobber people. I watched this on a whole bunch of mushrooms. I was rolling on the floor laughing. I actually need to watch it again but this time on some of the Devils Acid lol.
